Anyway, I was intrigued by that new frontier of misogyny, and I think there really is a thing properly described as "Take a woman that's in control of her life, and then silence her."
But what got me looking up a recap of that episode — Season 4, Episode 8 — was the line, in response to that old cliché "It's not about you" — "It's not not about me." There's a conversational move you might want to consider.
I felt like there was an old "Seinfeld" episode about the phrase "It's not about you," but it turns out that — "The Lip Reader" — was about the similar but different phrase "It's not you, it's me."
Gwen: It's not you, it's me.
George: You're giving me the "it's not you, it's me" routine? I invented "it's not you, it's me". Nobody tells me it's them not me, if it's anybody it's me.
Gwen: All right, George, it's you.
George: You're damn right it's me.

Take a woman that's in control of her life, and then silence her.
A sexless verbal rape?
Where does that rank on the scale of offenses? Above microagression and sticking-out-tongue but short of murder-dismemberment-anthropaphagy?
Why are you defending a child molester who has lied about rape?
"Misogyny" is becoming overused/abused, much like "racism" has been. Whenever I hear "misogyny", I know the speakers simply wants others to shut up and give her what she wants, or do what she says.
Letting a woman be in control of her life and wanting her to shut up are two different things.
Oh man, I have missed so much TV...what on earth was I doing all those years?

Would they prefer "Take a woman who's not in control of her life, and then save her"? Because I was under the impression that wasn't thought of too highly either.
I saw one episode of Girls to check out the buzz. It was awful. Unwatchable. The girls portrayed are unlikeable, unattractive, unbearable. One could derive more insight and wisdom from watching old re-runs of Petticoat Junction.
Once the clitoris is properly stimulated any woman can be tamed.

The term "mysogny" sets off my bullshit alarms.
Williams is cute. I wouldn't f@ck Dunham with a donated Zulu penis.

Kinda walked into that one.
The Proposal (Sandra Bullock Ryan Reynolds)
... Here we are. We're home.
Margaret: That is your home? Who are you people?
Margaret: Why did you tell me you were poor?
Andrew: I never said I was poor.
Margaret: But you never told me you were rich.
Andrew: I'm not rich. My parents are rich.
Margaret: OK, you know what? That's something only rich people say.
Who are you people?
Does anybody think that Althouse would be defending/promoting a man who admitted to molesting his sister and who had been (falsely) accused of rape?
But again
woman = good
man = bad
I missed the Lena Dunham thing entirely, but there's an issue of the Oberlin Alumni Magazine devoted to her. This is before the one devoted to Baltimore's Mayor.
Spring issues seem to have bad timing.
and then silence her.
Yes, truth be told. Women talk too much and it annoys us. Smart women recognize this and adapt.
Dunham is also another rape hoaxer.
There's a woman on that show who's in control of her life? When did that happen?
I bet that you could tame Lena Dunham with candy and ice cream.
I am Laslo.
"I think there really is a thing properly described as "Take a woman that's in control of her life, and then silence her.""
In the age of the permanent and universal whine, is any woman ever "silenced"?
What's "a thing," anyway? Is one thing enough to make a thing a thing? Or do you need lots of things to make a thing a thing? If so, how many?
If silence refers to murder, then the proposition is bound to be true. But that has always been a thing. If we are taking about crime, then the point applies to more men.
Anyway, I'd want to see all the cases of women who 1. were "in control of their lives"; 2. were "taken"; and 3. were "silenced."
And then compare with all the men who had the same experience. Let's call it the Brendan Eich syndrome.
Wasn't this taming, owning thing one of the themes of the now very old feminist movie "An Unmarried Woman"?
I know, right?
"Taming the wild horse" is not some "new frontier". It's an old, old storyline. At least 400 years old, as it's a Shakespeare play, and he stole plots and improved on them.
Also, in real life, "tamed" women aren't silenced - a woman actually in control of her life will remain so after getting married. It's women with no self-control and nothing worthwhile to say who will be silenced.
If my comments today advocating the importance of stimulating the clitoris move even one man to take my advice then I will have accomplished much in the battle against misogyny.
Chicks should dig that about me.
I am Laslo.
Chicks dig the Laslo long ball.
So George to the rescue to save another lousy Lena post. Thanks men.
The Mad Libs episode of "Girls".
... it's the new frontier in misandry.
Being green is in. Recycling is tres chic.
Lena Dunham - after reading this I don't care. Why is she famous?
She knows the right people in publishing and show biz - I assume.
Who said it was new? I said it's a thing.
hey...anybody know if Gary Glitter has a TV show?
Prediction:
Next season, the season opener will feature a cameo of mattress girl playing herself.
